Dear Saigon

Came here for dinner the other night. Really good! I found their portions to be pretty big (for the pho dishes there were no size options but im sure you can let them know before hand if you have specific requests) We got their chicken pad thai, grilled chicken and pork vermicelli, and their house pho. Their pho broth was good, not to tangy or bland (it was a tad bit cloudy, for anyone who minds that about their broth iykyk) the toppings were perfectly balanced and you had a good amount of everything ☺️ the pad thai was great too! The noodles were perfect and not mushy (some places can get a bit past al dente 🤣) and the grilled vermicelli was soo good!! Definitely worth trying!! The staff here were so kind and helpful too so that's always a plus and the restaurant itself was clean 👌 including the restrooms. Overall, definitely a place worth trying and they have a great playlist too 😆 will come back when we're in the area!

Same platter I always get. They said they ran out of shrimp roll and added extra meat to order (only when I went back to complain did they informed of changes) Not worth the $44 + tax.

We used to eat here once every few months and was always acceptable, but now the quality has hit rock bottom. Took almost 30 min in a near-empty place to serve skin roll and typical pho and pad thai. The noodles used were identical for both the two dishes and not only that, tasted not cooked enough and slightly hard. The pho soup base was mediocre and supplied-lettuce was stale with blackening ends, while the pad thai tasted like ketchup was used liberally.

We wondered if the chef's out of town leaving behind amateurs to run the kitchen. If so, I'd advise closing up shop until an experienced chef is in service.

Very average overall. The place is nice and the air inside the restaurant smells good, but the food was average tasting. I ordered a rice plate, but it’s not good unless it is broken rice and the rice has to be served with a soup for optimal quality. The meat on the rice plate was chewy and not marinated enough either. Others had the pho, but the meatballs were veiny. I do like that they serve warm water with their meals but that’s about it. Very minimal selection of condiments available on the table as well with no cups to put them in even. You need to ask.

The go to pho place! The pho portions are pretty big for one person so if you aren’t too hungry, it’s good to share!

Service is good, staff are friendly, food is tasty all around. Restaurant is nicely decorated and clean.

Poor food: Charging $20 with a big bowl of pho almost no meat at all. Little chunks of chicken breast hard like rocks tasteless.

Poor service: after delivering several bowls here still no utensils on table yet until we asked them. Asked for additional bowls they gave mini plastic bowls, asked them to bring the bigger ones and finally they brought the ones that were supposed to as they match the cups.

Insist to deliver all big bowls on one side of the table while already very crowded.

I came with my family and had great experience.

We asked the server for some suggestions since we wanted to share. They recommended the house special pho which came with everything, Chicken and shrimp pad Thai, chicken wings and a mango salad. The chicken wings were soo good and juicy.

Everything was so delicious and flavourful with great quality in ingredients.

Service was also perfect, we were always getting checked on to make sure we had everything we needed. Everyone was so friendly.

Highly recommend this place, we'll certainly be back to try all the other dishes.

It's ok. I've had better experience from other Vietnamese restaurant.

The food is very yummy. The price is a bit expensive. But no sauce for dear saigon platter?

This was my first time visiting and it wont be the last. Walking in, it was very spacious and clean. The staff were super welcoming and friendly. Didn’t try much this time, but everything I had was very flavourful. The portions were pretty big making the prices reasonable. Definitely will be going back to have some Pho & try out other dishes.

Iced Vietnamese coffee 3/5 - layers are cool but lacked depth and was not strong
Bun bo hue - solid bowl of bbh. Sausage was more meaty than snappy. Broth wasn't that spicy
Pho - nothing special. Pretty standard. Broth wasn't clear.

Service was good.

I've been to the Yonge Street location and this was my first time at this location. I love all the parking in this plaza. Plus there's so much to explore in the area. The restaurant is beautiful inside. We came for lunch and tried their new $18.99 combos. We both went to for the pho. The spring rolls were huge. Both so yummy. We had a wonderful experience. I'll definitely be back
